After Triassic we headed to Joe's. Off all injuries, I sprained my pinkie spotting, which turned out to be a more significant hindrance to climbing than I would have expected. Grabbing everything with three fingers sucks. I tried some climbs at Joe's but nothing went well and I decided to rest as the next stop was three days in Indian Creek. The theme of the trip was finger cracks, I did not place a piece bigger than a BD #1 the whole time. I completed Left Crack (5.12) and flashed Johnny Cat (5.11+) but mostly just got on cool new stuff that I want to go back and try more. However, Tim, who flashed Left Crack, and Rich, who flashed Middle Crack (5.12-), were the champions of the trip.

Just past the crux, trying not to blow it on Left Crack.
